AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Hormuz Pressure Campaign: Iran says the Strait of Hormuz won’t reopen until the U.S. “corrects” its behavior, demands an end to the blockade, sanctions relief, frozen-asset release, and “complete compensation” for war damage—while the U.S. keeps insisting on conditions for any deal. Red Sea Escalation: Yemen’s Houthis claimed attacks on Saudi targets, including an Aramco refinery and troop positions near Mokha, raising risks for shipping and regional stability. Gaza Disarmament Standoff: Israel’s Netanyahu rejected the U.S.-backed “Board of Peace” roadmap for Hamas disarmament and withdrawal, with Gaza’s civilian future hinging on whether any phased plan can be made workable. Iran Security Leadership: Mohsen Rezai was appointed head of Iran’s Supreme Security Council, underscoring the hardline security posture as negotiations over Hormuz remain stalled. Energy Politics at Home: Illinois Gov. Pritzker and Trump both target Big Oil over Iran-war profits, but analysts note maritime policy changes like Jones Act waivers may not meaningfully cut pump prices.
